Portrait of My Life
Portrait Of My Life
I want to paint a portrait, of my life for all of
you to see. But I am not an artist and that is
hard for me. Still I am going to try - so my
portrait you can see.
My life is full of ups and downs, also joys, sorrows,
and sometimes tears. Love did come to my life and
the colors in my world changed, when a daughter
I did have.
His love did not last and life went on. Other horizons
I explored. Someone else came into my life and the
sun came out once more. Life did not stop, it kept
going on.
Now in my twilight years, I am here with you. I have
become a writer like the rest of you. Writing gives me
pleasure and also something to do. My portrait is
almost finished and many colors it has.
The colors are the different stages that I went through
in my life. Sometimes I cry, smile or laugh. But that is the
only portrait of my life that I have...
My portrait,my life, my view.
